Deep breath. This was not a ditch to die in.

Yes it was. Sessions was to be a major weapon in draining the swamp.  He did nothing wrong, whatsoever.

He recused only in investigation of the campaign. That is clear and specific and limited.

A Sessions non-recusal does not change that. Release of the transcripts of the conversation that killed Flynn would go a long way toward exposing the whole hatchet job this is.

Sessions' manner is way too smiley and conciliatory.

He's leaving himself open to all kinds of stuff. "Well I don't recall...and I can't be sure...and those ambassadors are gossipy."  Dumb.

Seeing as how Trump praised Putin repeatedly, no it's not.


While the media sucks, Trump's big fat mouth did him no favors either.

This is not good at all.  Double standards for the DEMS., i.e., Holder, Lynch, Obama and Clinton.

Why do Trump-supporters always think it is okay to do something unethical if Obama or Clinton did it too??

Two wrongs don't make a right (except in Trumplandia)

Conversations that he had told them did not exist. That is the issue.

Dozens of people have been escorted out of this admin for failing background checks. When you think lying is a good thing, these things happen

AG Sessions is victim of illegal leaks.  As a victim, he should recuse himself from the investigation of these crimes.

Yes, they do.  So do AMP and the New York Times.

Won't keep him from killing those DOJ slush funds, or enforcing our immigration laws.

There seems to be some discrepancy. MSN is reporting differently.

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

That's just it. It doesn't matter,  recusing himself, now leaves it up to the MSM to interpret.

Maybe Giuliani would have been a better choice.

As much as it pains me to say it, the MSN headline is correct and the Fox News headline is patently false!

Not necessarily.  He will have many very competent people around him tahat are perfectly capable of looking into that matter.

Exactly what I was thinking.  We lose some but not much. 

They just appoint a young whipper snapper to go after Hillary.

Fox has employees who absolutely hate Trump. The technician who typed in that headline is likely one of them.
